In Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them, Queenie Goldstein (Alison Sudol) is a witch who is able to read minds. She lives with her older sister Tina Goldstein who one night brings home soon-to-be-famous magiczoologist Newt Scamander.

In Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them, Propentina Goldstein (Katherine Waterston) and her sister Queenie raised each other after their parents died of Dragon Pox. She works a ho-hum position for the Magical Congress of the United States of America , at least until she runs into Newt Scamander on the streets of New York.

In the Harry Potter spin-off Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them, Newton Scamander (Eddie Redmayne) attended Hogwarts where he studied magical creatures, nearly getting expelled for an experiment before his transfiguration teacher, Albus Dumbledore, stepped in. After school, he is commissioned to travel the world and write about the magical creatures he encounters, leading to adventures in New York City with sisters Tina and Queenie Goldstein.

Professor Albus Percival Wulfric Brian Dumbledore is the headmaster of Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry. He is the most powerful wizard in the world, and has some eccentric traits, like his love of knitting patterns. By serving as a mentor to Harry Potter, Dumbledore helps in the battle against Lord Voldemort.

At the end of his third year at Hogwarts, Harry learns the truth behind his parents’ deaths and who he can and can not trust while trying to save the beloved hippogriff, Buckbeak. While on this adventure, Harry is out of uniform and in a simple sweatshirt and tee that get a bit roughed up from all of the escaped-prisoner-chasing, dementor-fighting, and time-traveling.

Hermione, who is typically the brains of the group, gets her hands dirty by sticking it to the Ministry of Magic and releasing the sentenced Buckbeak. Her youthful pink attire contrasts with her strong and tough spirit, especially in the popular scene where she punches Draco Malfoy in the face.

Nymphadora Tonks (referred to by everyone as just “Tonks”) is an auror and a member of The Order of the Phoenix. She is also a metamorphagus, which gives her the ability to alter her look at will, though she usually chooses her signature bubblegum pink or purple hair. Tonks is notoriously clumsy and is known for her quirky sense of style.

Rita Skeeter is a witch journalist whom Albus Dumbledore has described as “enchantingly nasty.” When she is not spying and eavesdropping for stories in her secret animagus form, the beetle, she can be identified by her bright blonde curls, her Quick Notes Quill, and her mischievous smile.
